665: My Basement Is Beautiful

Hey. So, let me just go on an apology tour right now, because we were supposed to record yesterday at the normal time. And Tuesday, I woke up, and I felt like a truck had ran me over. Wednesday, the truck backed over me. And I was like, fellas, I cannot do this today. And so, my many thanks to my beloved cohost for being flexible. We are recording this on Thursday, and we are doing it during the day, which, generally speaking, we don't like to do because oftentimes, there's, like, leaf blowers or sometimes there's weed whackers or whatever and all sorts of background noise. So Barking dogs. Don't forget. You're gonna hear them soon. Yep. Barking dogs. You'll probably hear Penny pawing at the office door trying to get in. So all this to say, if the audio sounds like garbage, Casey's fault. Not Marco's fault. Casey's fault. So that's my bad. That that definitely, that we we didn't want to record this time, but I begged my beloved cohost to do it earlier in the day to ensure that I stayed awake for all of it, which they were gracious and kind enough to do. So if the audio is not exactly up to snuff, again, my fault, not Marcus. I mean, it'll probably be fine because, first of all, iZotope exists, and it's awesome. But also, you know, in typical Casey fashion, you are throwing yourself so far under the bus before there's even a problem, and there probably won't even be a problem. So it'll probably be fine.

In my, continuing, saga vision pro stuff arriving at my house, couple things. I I did get my lenses, sir. Did I talk about that, last episode? You mentioned you were going to get the lenses, sir. I don't think we know that you did. Yeah. Anyway, I did I did get them. They work well. I'm actually kind of surprised that, the balance between me trying it with my mismatched contacts versus my correct, lens inserts, because the mismatched contacts are not quite right. One of my eyes has slightly the wrong prescription, but they have the advantage of not having a second pair of lenses in there. And the second pair of lenses does add more internal reflections, and also external reflections for light leaking through, which is another issue we'll get to in a second. So it's it actually is interesting. Like, I really have no choice. I can't do the contact thing because I would have to put the contacts in and put the VisionPRO and take them off when I take it out because I can't because my vision is bad. And my contacts that are calibrated to our distance, I can't look at the computer or my phone, and that's not good. I …
